Get Well Soon – Peter Jacobsen

Champions Tour Player Peter “Jake’ Jacobsen has got to be the most humorous golfer alive. So when I learnt recently that he is recovering from knee surgery. I felet the need to post this get well wish. Here goes…GET WELL JAKE…YOU ARE MISSED ON TOUR.

If you have not seen this Portland, Oregon native goof off on and off the course…then you are missing oout on having fun with golf. Peter also toys around with the guitar and was even in a band.

Jake’s physician Dr. Mort Bertram was extremely happy about the results of his surgery. Jacobsen who is at home now, is feeling great and will begin rehabilitation. He said that he was looking forward to his recovery and plans to get back out on Tour this summer.

Jacobsen finished tied for 13th at The ACE Group Classic and grabbing a win with Fuzzy Zoeller at the unofficial Wendy’s Champions Skins Game, Jacobsen struggled in his next two tournaments this season. He finished 71st in a field of 77 players at the Toshiba Classic then tied for 60th at the AT&T Champions Classic.

This is his second surgery since March 2007, when he underwent back surgery and returned to the Tour in May last year but continued to have back problems throughout the year.

The injuries are part of an ongoing battle for Jacobsen, who had left hip-replacement surgery in September 2006. He also had problems with his right knee in 2006 and received a series of cartilage injections in hopes of avoiding knee replacement
